Yes, Sachs is calling that little machine " 3 step gear" The new ones today have only one step and are therefore more silent but the 3 step is stronger in the mountains.It isn't even built how I was expecting when you said it was a 3 speed. I was expecting some sort of planetary gear system but it is 3 actual narrow little gears instead.
It is a neat little machine and I bet it is a lot of fun to ride around on.
Fuel: 235 Miles with one gallon two-stroke mixture. At present very cheap to drive instead of using one of my heavy drinking old timers.
Just heard they got Al-Sawiri - great!
Here is a picture from the area.
